We LOVE this game! We had a lot of fun playing Good Bones from RETCON Games during Extra Life Game Day. It's a story that touches upon the subject of domestic violence, and shows us how important we are to those we love. A victory in the world of gaming for women, BIPOC, single moms and survivors of abuse.
